FWIW I get the same, on the same system (but with xorg-server instead of Xquartz).

  • Ticket #36508 – Description

    initial v1  
    11I have a new MacBookPro retina running OSX 10.8.2. I have installed XQuartz 2.7.4, Xcode 4.5, command line tools for Xcode 4.5 and graphics jtools for Xcode 4.4. I then installed MacPorts and used it to install several ports including the plotutils. The executable "plot" creates postscript files without difficulty. For example (input is a file containing two columns of numbers):
    22
     3{{{
    34graph input | plot -T ps > ouput.ps
     5}}}
    46
    57produces a standard postscript file. However, the command
    68
     9{{{
    710graph input | plot -T X
     11}}}
    812
    913gives the following error message:
    1014
     15{{{
    1116libplot: ignoring request to create plotter of unknown type
    1217plot: error: the plot device could not be created
     18}}}
